The Winemaking & Viticulture Roundtable is open to women winemakers, associate/assistant winemakers, enologists, vineyard managers, and viticulturists. Roundtable meetings serve as a unique, confidential forum for women winemaking and viticulture professionals to meet, exchange ideas and network with colleagues. The roundtable meets five times a year, taking a harvest break. Topics focus on those C-suite skills that winemakers need, but for which they often don’t get training. Guest speakers have included wine writers, sommeliers, global sensory consultants, key wine publication editors, media trainers, CFO’s and general managers. This is a dynamic group of very talented women!

This roundtable focuses on strategic and tactical issues for marketing wine sold through all channels, from direct sales and tasting room to the three-tier system. Topics include wine marketing strategy, brand management, distributor and relationship management, communication materials, social networking, wine e-commerce, wine clubs, and other related topics. Members include marketing professionals from wineries as well as consulting firms. The goal is to provide support and education to members through informal networking and discussions.

The purpose of this roundtable is to support one another in our HR roles, to be a resource and sounding board for employment and HR related topics and the challenges we face, and to enjoy the company of other professionals who enjoy wine. Members are professionals responsible for some aspect of HR, be that as a specialist or generalist.
